A soft and waxy voice woke up Su Mingzhe, who had his eyes closed and was meditating.
"Let it go."
Su Mingzhe looked up and saw that it was Xu Banxia's assistant Wang Xiaoya.
Wang Xiaoya is a technical secondary school student from a county below Binhai City. She has an ordinary appearance, but has a plump figure and a sweet voice.
If this girl were to put on a maid outfit and a mask on her face, she would definitely be able to charm everyone.
It's a pity that the face is too ordinary. Su Mingzhe took one look at it and didn't have the heart to look at it a second time.
After Wang Xiaoya put down the tea, she didn't dare to stay any longer. But before she could leave, Su Mingzhe suddenly remembered something and stopped the girl:
"Xiao Wang, when I entered the company just now, I found that the goods in the yard were almost full. What happened?"
When Wang Xiaoya heard what happened, he quickly explained:
"Boss, aren't we at odds with the main station? Mr. Cui over there has united with other stations to refuse to accept our goods. Now in our yard, we can only find someone to take the goods outside."
"Well, I understand."
When Su Mingzhe heard that Fatty Cui was behind it again, he waved his hand and asked Wang Xiaoya to go out.
More than an hour later, near noon, Xu Banxia and others returned beaming with joy.
Because the foreign trade company was newly opened, it originally had to pay nearly 600,000 yuan in taxes. According to regulations, more than 200,000 yuan was reduced and reduced, and only more than 300,000 yuan was required.
This is equivalent to making more than 200,000 yuan for nothing.
No wonder Xu Banxia and Chen Yuyu are beaming with joy.
Although Su Mingzhe didn't want to disturb the excitement of several people, he had to ask:
"Ban Xia, how are things going with Fatty Cui?"
Hearing the man's question, Xu Banxia's face changed slightly, and then he pretended to be calm and said as if nothing had happened:
"Still following the method you mentioned before."
Chen Yuyu glanced at Xu Banxia, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said:
"Brother Su, the warehouse directors of those six steel mills are becoming more and more greedy. We continue to buy their scraps without any profit at all. We are just selling them. The profit margin of Fatty Cui is bigger than ours. A little, but it should be very thin... It may not be enough for gas money... After New Year's Day, Big Fatty Cui came to our yard. He said he was negotiating, but in fact he wanted to force us to give in to him. After Banxia and I didn't agree, Cui Big Fatty will unite with other scrap stations and refuse to accept our goods!"
"Continue to increase our investment, not only in the six steel mills, but also in other places. Remember, we are not trying to steal business, but drag him to death! As long as we kill Fatty Cui, we will be able to work in Binhai in the future. If someone wants to deal with our Shinhwa Company again, they should consider whether it is worth it!"
Su Mingzhe's murderous words made Xu Banxia and Chen Yuyu unbearable, but they didn't say anything.
Firstly, Su Mingzhe worked hard and found a new path for the company. Secondly, Xu Banxia and Chen Yuyu were still novices in business and did not understand the way of running a business at all.
Therefore, no matter what Su Mingzhe said, neither of them vetoed it.
Seeing that the company's future strategy was decided, Chen Yuyu immediately suggested that he find a restaurant in the evening to give Su Mingzhe a break.
Su Mingzhe naturally had no objection to this, and immediately hugged the woman and went home.
Su Mingzhe missed her a lot after not being home for two months.
Not only do I miss my home, I also miss my bed and the people on it.
At six o'clock in the evening.
Xu Banxia's last pair of stockings also had a hole.
Seeing that the man was tireless and wanted to continue, Xu Banxia was really frightened and couldn't help but beg for mercy:
"Husband, we have to go out for dinner tonight."
"This is the last time."
Su Mingzhe kept his word and finally let Xu Banxia go before seven o'clock.
Before 8pm.
Xu Banxia felt soft all over and was hugged by the man around her slender waist as she walked into the restaurant's private room.
Xu Qianqian, who is somewhat similar to Liu Meilan, is still a five or six-year-old baby at the moment. When she saw Xu Banxia entering the door, she immediately rushed over excitedly:
"Sister, brother-in-law, you guys are here!"
"Sorry, I'm late!"
After the Chinese New Year, Xu Banxia was only twenty-two years old, and his face was far less thick-skinned than in the TV series. Faced with his sister's "questioning", he was shy and speechless.
Su Mingzhe was still thick-skinned and calmly greeted his father-in-law Xu Youren and Liu Meilan.
Originally, tonight's reception banquet was considered a company dinner.
However, in the afternoon, Xu Youren brought his wife and children to the company to find Xu Banxia.
Chen Yuzhou just invited him casually, but to his surprise, the couple agreed without any shame.
Fortunately, the box is quite large, even if it seats more than a dozen people, it is quite spacious.
After Su Mingzhe sat down, he asked Chen Yuyu next to him:
"Did you order?"
"Already ordered!"
As Chen Yuyu said, he asked the waiter to serve the dishes and brought out the menu, asking Su Mingzhe and Xu Banxia to order a few more dishes.
The two people, who were not short of money, waved their hands and ordered several hard dishes.
This Chaoyang Restaurant specializes in Sichuan and Shandong cuisine, and the taste is more suitable for the public.
As the dishes were served, Chen Yuyu took the initiative to give a toast.
Tonight is said to be a refreshment for Su Mingzhe, but in fact it is already the end of the New Year, and this can be regarded as a New Year's Eve dinner for the company's management.
After this meal, it’s time for the company to carry out the finishing work.
After three drinks, everyone began to toast each other.
As Xu Banxia's biological father, Xu Youren was toasted in turn by several people in the company and praised with all kinds of flattery. It could be said that he was in high spirits and didn't know where he was.
It was Liu Meilan who stretched out her slender fingers and pinched her man hard under the table that made Xu Youren react:
"Ahem, Banxia, um, your sister Qianqian is celebrating the Chinese New Year, so it's time for her to go to elementary school..."
When Xu Banxia heard that it was about her sister, she couldn't help but smile:
"Dad, are you ready to send Qianqian to which elementary school?"
"Your Aunt Meilan originally wanted to send your sister to a bilingual school, but..."
Xu Youren said with a dry smile on his face, his eyes filled with the embarrassment of a middle-aged man:
"Your Aunt Meilan and I went to ask about it. That bilingual school has very high requirements for students. If you want to get in, you must take an entrance exam. In addition to normal Chinese and mathematics, the exam content also requires foreign languages and talents.
Acting... Your Aunt Meilan and I just want to enroll Qianqian in some interest classes..."
Xu Banxia understood the meaning of Xu Youren's words, and the smile on his face faded slightly, but he still said warmly:
"How much does it cost?"
Seeing that his daughter was willing to pay, Xu Youren quickly counted on his fingers and said:
"A children's English tutoring class costs RMB 500 per month. There are still five months until the exam, so this is RMB 2,500. There are also interest classes. Your Aunt Meilan and I want to enroll your sister in this music class for five months.
The tutoring fee plus musical instruments and equipment is almost five thousand..."
"Okay, Dad, I will send the money to you tomorrow!"
This is not the first time Xu Youren has asked Xu Banxia for money.
Ever since Xu Banxia graduated from high school and contracted the scrap station with Chen Yuyu, Xu Banxia would use most of his monthly dividends to subsidize Xu Youren's family of three.
Liu Meilan, the stepmother, was not only ungrateful for Xu Banxia's subsidizing behavior, but also jokingly called Xu Banxia 'Sister Fan'.
Unlike Liu Meilan lying on Xu Banxia's body to suck blood, father and daughter Xu Youren and Xu Qianqian know a little bit about etiquette, justice and shame.
In the TV series, Xu Banxia asked Xu Youren to borrow 500,000 yuan, but Xu Youren could only lend 300,000 yuan, and asked Xu Banxia to take out the equity of the house where he and Liu Meilan lived as a mortgage.
While watching TV, I still felt that Xu Youren was cruel and ruthless towards Xu Banxia, his daughter.
Later, I checked the housing prices in Jiangnan Province in 1996. In the prosperous area of Lucheng, the provincial capital (Lin'an, Yuhang), the price was about two to three thousand.
New real estate in Binhai City (Ningbo) is about the same price as Lin'an and Yuhang, with prices around 1,500 yuan.
The Xu family's house is old and shabby, costing one thousand yuan per square meter, which is basically as big as the sky.
The area of the Xu family's house was calculated based on the large house of that era, which was about 100 square meters. The value of the entire house would not exceed 100,000.
Xu Youren paid out 300,000 yuan and only asked Xu Banxia to use a house worth no more than 100,000 yuan as a mortgage. This is enough to prove that he still has some father-daughter feelings for Xu Banxia.
